Google Maps address in contact form

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I use a contact form for clients to contact me for a photobooth rental. I sometimes have trouble locating the venue they are mentioning due to the typos. I am looking to change my contact form in order to include a Google-Maps address entry. I have looked through the tutorials and reached out to the customer service and this isn't possible as a standard module, they therefore advised me to post here and I haven't found any similar requests.

I found the API on Google developer website, but I'm not sure how to integrate that in the contact form and get the data.

Thanks

Mike

This is usually fairly straightforward. Can you explain where you got stuck? For example, have you signed up for the Google Maps Platform and created your billing account?

@paul2009 do you have a solution for this. I have the google API setup but don't know how to include this into a form for the client. They are a real estate agent an need this to locate addresses fro home valuations.
